Just watching the NFL channel and they said if Gonzo runs a 4.4, he'll put himself in the late 1st round.
They also said that Ohio State coaches (of course this could be fluff) that Gonzalez ran step for step with Tedd Ginn Jr..

what is it with Willis? I see some mocks that have him going in the early teens, then I see some that have hime going late in the first. I know all mocks vary, but that a 10-15 pick difference. From everything I have seen, he looks like he'll be a great player. If he is there at 24, I hope the Pats get him.

I'd like to see us go heavy on defense..

So who would Gonzalez be a comparable to, Stokley, maybe, but without the injuries if the Patriots drafted him, please?

The one thing I will say of Gonzalez is he takes his football seriously. I'm thinking of the story where he purchased a portable chamber that simulated high altitude year.

Let's say they do draft him just for arguments sake. They'd get a player that was totally devoted to football and a great lockerroom guy IMO.

Here's a Sports Illustrated comparison and if thats the case I would want him also.

8. Anthony Gonzalez, Ohio State: A steady and dependable possession receiver with explosive quickness. He is a polished route runner who finished as the Buckeyes' second-leading receiver in 2006. He has all of the tools to be a solid complementary receiver on the next level. He will run a surprising 40 time, but his overall skills make him a solid second-round pick.

Interview Brandon Meriweather (Miami) til his eyeballs bleed, and get an idea of whether he's an incorrigible punk... I rarely say this about guys because most of the time, they're just asses if they have off-field issues.

It's just too intriguing to have a guy that has played strong safety, free safety, and cornerback, all well. I would love to see him on the field as a Patriot. I would also love to see Pacman Jones on the field as a Patriot. But I wouldn't take Jones, and might not take Meriweather, based on sheer attitude/felony issues alone.

I wish these guys would just grow up and realize they're going to be as rich as they want, get all the trim they want, and pretty much get everything they ever dreamed of, if they'd just shut the **** up, concentrate on football, and stay out of ahem tussles with the law, other players, strippers... you get the idea.

I'll admit that I haven't been looking in to the draft much as yet, but I'd be a little pissed if they took a WR in the first round but not a LB. Unless of course a LB that would fit the system simply wasn't there worth taking, but I gotta figure at 24 and 28 at least one has to be.

I made that comparison of him to Stokley on another board yesterday. Like you said, he is Stokley without the injuries, but he also has better run after the catch skills than Stokley. He is a little bit more of a quicker, elusive type than Stokley. I think I saw him returning punts in a dual formation with Ginn before.

I like him going to Buffalo with their first round pick if they lose London Fletcher-Baker. Then again, what do I know?

I've also heard that some have him going in the 2nd or even the 3rd. Weird.
